....I hear quite a bit of drumming each fall while bow hunting...have seen a few doing it and looks to me like a good portion of the fall drumming takes place by young of the year birds

Funny thing is I don't see many at all but I hear em drumming...lol..but I'll spend 5 days a week in stands on average from bow opener to MN gun or Wisconsin gun depending on what tags i have left and where

Been averaging about 5 WC flushes and 3 Ruffie flushes per trip... The leaves are still making the shooting part challenging though. The weather up here for the next couple of weeks is going to make it prime though!
